The poster "pacertom" since this forum began (and before!). I changed my name here to "Slick Pinkham" in honor of the imaginary player That Bobby "Slick" Leonard picked late in the 1971 ABA draft (true story!)

Re: All time Pacers team

I'll take Slick PinkhamS selections. The only possible difference might be in the bench, where I might be tempted to work in Don Buse.

Buse vs. Freddie Lewis vs. Billy Keller was a tough choice and I figured I had to take two.

I debated putting on Clark Kellogg just to get ChicagoJ's attention.

You lost all credibility naming Rick Mount who was very mediocre indeed. Also, listing Mel Daniels as a PF is wrong because he was a PF. I would have Mel as the starting center and Smits on the bench. McGinnis would be the PF although he was more like a SF. I would also put Freddie Lewis on this team. I would not have Jalen Rose on it. I would put Granger on in his place. ...

Re: All time Pacers team

My all-anything-positive Pacer team will never have Ron Artest on it. That's like having a turd in the punch bowl.

Re: All time Pacers team

No he shouldn't. Check the stats for career assists..... Jackson is the easy choice..... ...

Your opinion.

IMO there is more to playing the position than piling up assists in the regular season against weak teams. How many assists was Jackson earning from the bench in the fourth quarter of so many key playoff games.

There is a difference in playing in the ABA and the NBA too. Buse's best days were behind him when he came here. ...

I didn't see them play so I wasn't sure. I just know they were all very solid players
